High pressure remains over the central Atlantic, with Hurricane Bill on the southern edge of this ridge. The air flow around this high is clockwise, so Hurricane Bill will move like the hand on a ticking clock clockwise around this high pressure the rest of this week. As of Tuesday morning, Bill is a Category Two hurricane with maximum sustained wind speeds of 100mph, but it is expected to intensify over the next 24 hours to a major hurricane as it moves over slightly warmer surface waters and its structure remains intact in low wind shear.
